3.3.4 Modifying an Existing Network Configuration
The following paragraphs describe the NETGEN procedure that
allows modification of a previously built configuration. NETGEN
allows a user to augment, change, or delete from the network
confi guration. It is p::>ssi ble to add a new secondary station, a
TX task to an existing secondary station, or a DXIO task to the
primary station. It is also possible to change an entry for an
FCCC line or a secondary station, to change the length of the
internal communications queues, or to delete a network ID from
the network. If all network IDs on a line are deleted the line
